Hi,

I followed your suggestions, I have set 'UseDNS no' in sshd_config and restarted sshd.

 

I tried 'getent passwd' and 'getent group' there is no delay in the output of these commands.

 

I tried to create home directory after login using pam_mkhomedir.so but failed. 

 

I am getting delay only while login. I am getting below errors during login. Please see the below error and kindly help me to fix this delay problem.

 

Last login: Fri Sep 30 15:22:53 2011 from 10.254.194.148

Could not chdir to home directory /home/kim: No such file or directory

id: cannot find name for user ID 105

Thanks and Regards,

When I've seen that error before and if I recall correctly it was one of the follwing issues:

 

1. The cert file (/etc/openldad/cacerts/) or where ever it's installed was not readable by the user that needed to read it.  You could make it world readable for a test.

2.  It's been a long time, but I think that this also may have caused the error.  Not entirely sure though, notes are not available.  We did not have the following in /etc/ldap.conf (RH5 system):

     nss_base_passwd    ou=. . . .

     nss_base_shadow    ou=. . . .

     nss_base_group       ou=. . . .
